A MONSTER STONE.
: That retaining wall on Jackson street
is being built like a mountain to stay.
The wall is nearly half completed and
a good Idea of what It will look like is
Judged from the part already up. The
stones used in the construction are very
large In size and of a quality which will
last. As a sort of corner-stone in the
extreme lower end of the wall a monster
bulder has been placed. Its size has
attracted much comment and Interest.
The stone is 7x4x3 feet and weighs about
ten tons. It was taken from the east
mountain quarry and was carted here
on a stone wagon. Contractor Max
Phillips' men experienced much trouble
In getting the boulder into place.

playing ball on Sunday and last night,
as on the night previous, there was but
two responses out of seven or eight ac
cused. The case was "adjourned Indefi
nitely." This means that nothing will
bo heard of It in the future. The Inllu
ence of a prominent city ofllclal is the
cause of the Indefinite adjournment.
MILLION patriotic voters have rcc
I v5 ognlzed the contusion of our pub
lic politics, and arc determined
toinibrm themselves, and stand like patriots
in the hour of their peril and vote to the best
of their knowledge, for the best interests of
the common people of the whole country. It
means further that every voter wants to
know, not only the doctrines of his own
party, but the views of all other parties and
the reason for the dlflcrences Gold, Silver,
Tariff and Free Trade. To this end we have
secured a complete handbook of public po
